Hi,

Just wondeirng if you could help me anwers this question regarding ontape.

Currently running on informix 10.

We are running an ontape backup ontape -s -L 0, however during the backup the data is still being updated by applications/customers.

Does the backup consist of the new changes(duration of teh backup) or does the engine only backup the data that there at the start of the backup.


Cheers

Even though this document was written before IDS 10, you'll find a good explanation of what's happening during an level zero backup here: http://docs.rinet****/InforSmes/ch18/ch18.htm

hi mate,

Thanks for you link, but it does not seems to work....

sorry about that, no idea why the asterisks replaced "dot ru"
the entire ebook is : http://docs dot rinet dot ru slash InforSmes

the specific chapter for backups is chapter18

Any admins here want to comment on the censorship that took place in this thread?Is it based on this forum rule?
